Bounds that moved, objects that beat a record and algorithms with fewer operations. Each record target is a quantity with a direction and the history of who held each value; Frontiers draws each history as a staircase.

Why a register needs targets
Much of what AI has contributed to mathematics is a better bound or a new object rather than a settled proposition, so the register holds record targets beside its statements, each with the history of its values and who reached them.
A machine holds the record on 27 of these and matched without beating it on 14 more; the two standings are counted separately. Where a source records only where a construction stands, not its value, the value is left empty.
Record standings
- below
- Did not reach the best known value
- matched
- Equalled the best known value
- record
- Best known value
- superseded
- Held the record, since beaten
- unstated
- No standing recorded at source
Evidence uses the same ladder as a proof. For an object, V3 means the thing was rebuilt and tested against the constraints of its own problem.
